- TEST CONDITIONS
- Composition of mineral medium: Stock solutions (A) - (D) were prepared according to OECD Guideline 301 B. For preparation of the mineral medium 10 mL of solution (A) is mixed with 900 mL demineralised water, 1 mL each of solutions (B), (C) and (D) are added and the volume is made up to 1 litre.
- Composition of CO2-absorption medium: 64.03 g NaOH was dissolved in 8000 mL deionised water in closed vessels (0.2 M NaOH). The inorganic carbon concentration of the 0.2 M NaOH was determined (IC = 2.738 mg/L).
- Addition of test item: the test item was added directly into the test vessels
- Test temperature: 20.8 – 22.7°C throughout the whole study
- Concentration of inoculum: 30 mg dry solids per litre
- Continuous darkness: no; diffuse light
TEST SYSTEM
- Culturing apparatus:
Gas wash bottles (2000 ml volume) with lateral connecting pieces for butyl rubber septa were used as reactors.
- Number of culture flasks/concentration: 3 reactors containing the test item; concentration of organic carbon: 20 mg/L
- Method used to create aerobic conditions: aerated by the passage of carbon dioxide-free air; the aeration rate was kept at a rate of 30 - 100 mL / min (1.6 - 5.5 bubbles / second); incubation under aerobic conditions for 28 days.
- Measuring equipment: IC-measurement with Total carbon analyzers TOC-L and TOC-5050A (with autosamplers)
- Test performed in closed vessels: yes, the system was sealed
- Details of trap for CO2: The CO2 produced in the reactors was absorbed in two 250 mL gas wash bottles in series each filled with 200 mL 0.2 M NaOH.
SAMPLING
- Sampling frequency: on the 3rd, 7th, 10th, 14th, 21st and 28th day
- Sampling method:
+ For each sampling 4 mL were taken from the first of two CO2-absorber flasks connected in line and the IC's were determined. The vials were immediately closed with sealing film in order to avoid CO2 uptake from the air.
+ On the 28th day, sampling of each reactor was performed to measure the CO2 dissolved in water as inorganic carbon (IC), through the lateral connecting pieces through the butyl rubber septum using 5 mL PE syringe.
+ The IC in the second CO2-absorber flasks, used as protective flasks, was determined on day 30.
